Ascents as various tick types by Ben Jenga

The top half was the best climbing I did today. Supa funky.

Great repeat. Pumping chunks at the top.

Fun but very short. Tricky at the top.

Just two moves really, hard but brief.

Easiest it’s ever felt. Easy to avoid the wet at the top.

Great warm up lap in the sticky wet Connie’s

Some of the best holds on the cliff.

I feel this is the harder of the two but same awesome rock. The slopes down low are sick.

Cool new route on some of the best rock at the brae. The crux is hard but short so give it a lash.

Did this mss flash many years ago, goos to see the grade is correct these days.

Warm down lap, almost fell off.

Fun route, tricky middle pockets

Retro Onsight, good straightforward crimping.

Fun lap.

Name a better warm up 4 in the mountains.

x2 warm up.

Did a bit of a link-up Caption Cake, good value. 2 laps

Lap

Short lap, pity is so short.

Had to work for it.

Two warm ups

Almost fell off lap.

Has a couple sold moves in the middle. Bit techy

Hard and demanding onsight, pretty intense from when you leave the deck. loved the twin 2 finger pockets.

Did this a while ago, tricky start then some cool holds and moves.

Repeat, so so

Bang on Mitch beta, long move to the friction pocket then long move off.

Been waiting many years to do this route. Great pumper on bomber rock.

Bit of a lost gem, but not as good as I had hoped for. Pretty sandy start up to the roof which was a bit hard going and pumpy up to the heels and hands fist rest. Still a couple tricky moves up top, to keep you pumping. No anchor...?

Well that mantle was touch and go, then many more tricky moves above. Didn't feel top end for the grade but plenty of spots you could slip off.

Turns out its not that much easier if you are tall, you get really bunched under the roof.

2x laps

The top was running with water, made for some interesting hold choices.

Warm up.

What a ride, biggest fight and best route I have done in ages. Got cooked in the corner, missed the good rest and pumped senseless up top. Worth visiting for this route alone.

Good access pitch for the amazing extension above. I had to down climb and reassess the big move at the start. Commit and hold on for the sustained section above.

Hidden gem, soft for the grade (23?) but a great mix of moves and some amazing pinches.

Though I was on the 23, I really liked the pocket boulder, looked harder then it was.

EOD lap

Fun repeat.

Good to chuck a lap. Pumpy straight after la la land.

Lap, sustained middle.

A bit cryptic down low to a hard reach off the ledge. Some great moves on the headwall. A massive thanx for all the rebolt action, this crag is really good.

Retro lap 2

Awesome to come back and tick this off placing after nearly 6 years to the day since my first shot. Such rad long route, its on until the anchor.

Sweet final problem.

Great gritstone arete slap. Didn’t top as I didn’t want to die while my family was waiting.

Lovely simple boulder.
